LET US HAVE A NEW DEAL.

The English and Canadian papers, so
far as heard from, rate Ingalls, frothy
and Incorporate speech in the Senate on
the fishery question at its real worth 1t
is well that inconsiderate words, even OF
so able and brilliant q man as Ingalls,,
pass as the idle wind with practical men
of affairs. The papers in question, how
ever, understand that the limit OF trifling
with the interests OF our fishermen
is reached and that hereafter, and
shortly, too, there must be fair play,
clear understanding OF and re-
spect for their rights. Canadian
injustice and jealousy, rather than
deliberate intention to affront this Nation
on the part OF Great Britain, appears to
have caused and intensified the fisher
mems troubles. Mr.. Bayard has been
called upon by the House for a copy Of
the correspondence had with the Court
OF st. James on the subject. If, in the
proper order OF things, this step had
been taken before the Senate bill with its
attendant report and swift following de
bate had taken the country by surprise,
the production OF the correspondence
with full understanding OF England's
position in the matter, would have
justified or condemned the extraordinary
action of the Senate. As it was
it came like thunderbolt out o
clear sky, and the country woke up all
at once to learn that the British Lion had
been playing with Uncle Sam for long
time, as cat plays with doomed
mouse. The explosive language OF In
gals and others added fuel to the flame,
and the public mind suddenly found
itself at white heat. 1t seemed for {
while as if the country would be carried
off its feet.
Something will come of it, and it is tC
be hoped that the scaly and irritating
question of how, when and where tC
catch and sell Goldfish on Canadian coasts
may be at once and forever settled. The
treaty Of 1918 has an ancient and fsh-lik,
smell. Let us dispense with it altogethe
and in new agreement use the English
language to clearly express exactly wha
we mean.

MORE COMPLICATION

Another imbroglio, similar to the
Cutting case, has arisen in FL Paso and
Paso del Norte, on the Mexican border
Trocente Ochoa, II wealthy resident OF
Paso del Norte, felt aggrieved at some
severe structures made against his fnan-
cial transactions by the ObservOdor, a
Mexican paper published in Paso del
Norte, but printed on the American side
OF the river Ochoa considered the pub
lication libellous and decided to seek re-
dress in an American court. He had Pedro
Garcia, manager OF the Observatory, in
dicted for criminal libel by the Grand
jury OF Ell Paso county, on the American
side. Garcia, who had been arrested by
the sheriff of FL Paso county, is a native
of Spain. No doubt the case when it
comes to trial will be transferred TO the
Federal Court, and thus will arise a
curious international complication. The
question presented is, whether foreigner
can maintain in our courts against an
other foreigner an action for criminal
libel published in foreign newspaper on
the ground that the paper was printed in
this country. The question is one OF
jurisdiction.

WHOLESOME HEBREW TEACHING.

Dr. Pereira Mendes, Jewish Rabbi Of
New York City, speaking in one OF the
synagogues there last week, gave utter
ance among other things to the following ::
"Let not ministers spend their time in
lamenting the drunkenness, the shocking
immortality, the british existence OF the
multitude. Let them be practical and
commence counter movement. Give
them other places to 60 than to saloons
or worse. Let them hear language that
can flow for whole minute without an
oath. Let them have reading rooms,
libraries and lyceums. Oh,
pastors! Let Methodist, Baptist, Epis-
copalian and Presbyterian, Catholic
and Jew sermonize less and harmonic
more. As Jews, to gain the respect of
our Christian brothers, We must not be
open to the reproach they know so well,
being Jew and living after the man
ner OF Gentiles." A synopsis OF the SER
mon as reported breathes the spirit of
the New Testament while it clings to the
words OF the Old. More and more the
good men OF all denominations move on
parallel lines toward the accomplish
ment of the most benefcent objects, and
the time is approaching, not when all
shall be lions or all lambs, but when the
lion shall lie down with the lamb in uni
ty of love and purpose.

NO QUARTER TO THE BOHEMIANs.

Formerly, on the upper waters of the
Mississippi, the contiguous tribes OF Sioux
and phippewas were at swords points
1t was war to the knife and the knife to
the hilt with them No quarter was given
or received. In our civil war, embittered
as were the parties to the quarrel,
blood proved thicker than water, and at
intervals between fighting the "Yanksb
and the "Johnnies", "you'uns and
we'uns" of the opposing ranks were
on excellent terms and smoked together
the pipe of peace, And here one is
reminded Of little incident related to
the writer by Colonel Rion Of South Car
olina, who commanded regiment OF his
State troops in the trenches at Petersburg.
Both lines OF earthworks had been
brought within rifle-shot OF each other,
and orders were received to alternate
with pick and shovel and musketry on
the works and at the enemy. The rank
and file, with a common sense peculiar
to Americans, knowing that a few men
shot through the head as they worked
would settle no question and prove moth
ing but cold-blooded murder, would
shout across to each other before the
alternate volleys, Look out, Johnny !"

THE INDIANA CONTEST.

The Senatorial contest in Indiana still
remains unsettled. AT this writing the
result is still in doubt. Both parties are
equally anxious and resolved to elect
their respective candidates. The proba-
bility now is that both will succeed by
double legislature, leaving the two Sena-
tors-elect to try titles to the seat in the
United States Senate. Such contest is
not assuring to thoughtful, patriotic men
who believe the absolute acquiescence in
the majority is a vital principle in the
Republic. Why is it that the Senator
ship OF Indiana is thus regarded as some
thing to be taken by violence? a
law OF Congress prescribes the
time and method of electing a
United States Senator. On the second
Tuesday OF the session each branch Of
the Legislature proceeds to ballot sepa-
rately. If they do not concur in elect
ing the same person, then both branches
meet in joint convention the next day,
and ballot from day to day until choice
is effected. When the present Legisla-
ture OF Indiana was organized, the Senate
was Democratic by four majority and the
House Republican by two majority, Civ
ing the Democrats consequently two ma
jority on joint ballot. 1t was certain
therefore that the Democrats would elect
their man in joint convention unless
the status of the Legislature was
changed. So the Republican House
proceeded to change the status by
unseating Democratic member and
seating a Republican in his place. The
Legislature then stood on joint ballot
Seventy-fve Democrats and seventy-fve
Republicans, and the Lieutenant Gov.
ernor as presiding officer, would give the
Republicans majority and thus prevent
the wicked Democrats from sending to
Washington another Senator whose vote
might change the majority in the United
States Senate. The really good Repub
licans seemed to think that the end Just
flied the means. And the Democrats in
the Senate, mindful of the Republican
designs, unseat Republican il
that body and thus restore tn,
status of the General Assembly
on the joint figures to the former figure
-76 Democrats and "A Republicans
They gofurther; they deny the validit,
OF the Lientenant-G Governors title to tn
office and appeal to the Supreme Court o
the State for an Injunction 10 prevent hin
from presiding over the joint convention
and the Court granted a writ of inunc
ton to thus restrain him, on the groun
that his election under the Indiana Cor
stitution was unconstitutional. This
the present situation, and yet, as TIN
Philadelphia Record well remarks, ether
is probably not Republican paper in th
country that has not informed its reader
that the Democratic politicians in Indian
and New Jersey are seeking by force an
fraud to elect United States Senator
from those States against the desire an
interest of the people"

"Iook out Yanks !" and in obedience to
orders fire the regulation volley, while
the opposing heads would disappear be-
hind the embankments.
In the press gang, asin the army, there
is a certain mutually, real journalistic
community OF interests which rises above
and reaches beyond ordinary party fights,
above volleys of hostile criticism and OF
individual sharps hooting. And so, in
press associations and at convivial gath
erings the journalistic gladiators outside
Of Utah bury the newspaper hatchet and
are "hail fellows well met"
Now, the wonder is, how, in the APP
preaching and expected era OF re-
construction and good feeling here in
Utah, the fellows who have led the
van of the fight, who are so embit'
cred against each other that ordin'
ary courtesies of newspaper debate
are ignored, will conduct themselves
Will the organ-grinders OF the Church
like maddened, disgusted Penrose, clothC
themselves with curses and with petit
coats, and like wild asses, flee into the
desert? Will the Gentle Jupiters-theii
occupation gone-throw away their un
used thunderbolts and "vamose the
ranch?" Or rather, will they smoke the
pipe OF peace, and amid the rising incense
strike hands in forgetfulness OF the past
and together with their acknowledged
ability work fin unison to build fret
and stalwart State, worthy of its mountain
home? We shall see what we shall see

Noble Youur woman.

Miss Elaine Goodale, the young wo- man whose name is to many a household word, has left Gen Armstrong's school, where she has been teaching negroes and Indians for the past three years, to be teacher at day school among the | Sioux, at the Lower Brule agency, Da- kota. Miss Goodale is scarcely out of her teens, beautiful, finely educated, refined, intellectual, full of life and a warm lover of Nature. Standing on life's threshold, with keen apprecia- tion of the pleasures that art, literature, travel and society have to offer, she has deliberately chosen to devote her life to aid in the solution of the Indian prob lem To many she will doubtless seem siclSly sentimentalist and quite likely her friends will be censured for allow ing her to sacrifice her life in such a way. But she Is something more than sentimentalist She has been study ing the Indian question with the true philanthropic spirit. She has studied it at Hampton and on the reservation. She believes that education (which means civilization and Christianization as welD is the true and only solution. She also believes that the best educa tional center, the place where the great est results can be secured, is in the day school on the reservation. She has wis., ited the day schools; has seen how little good they accomplish, what difficulties they have to encounter. She was not discouraged. She saw that in many cases the school was mere adjunct of the agency used to increase the agents income by furnishing salaries to mem bers of his family. She saw that in too many cases the teacher was not imbued with the missionary spirit, cared little or nothing about the moral, intellectual or spiritual welfare of the Indian and was interested only in making the most possible.out of government position. When she heard the objection that day schools were of very little use, she said, as she said at Mohonk last year, they ought to be made the great civilizing agencies. They should be made the true means of getting hold of the parent Indians. They should combine tech nical instruction with the primary Eng fish studies, teaching the girls to cook, wash, iron and housekeeping generally; and the boys how to make gardens, etc.
 It is because of her belief in this theory
 that she has gone among the Sioux at
 the Lower Brule agency, to demonstrate to the doubters what 8 brave Yankee girl can do with an idea. She will have the hopes and prayers of all good peo-
 pie who can appreciate what she is doing There is no missionary in any foreign field that is engaged in @ noblel work, with purer motives or unde, greater discouragements. .--Haryforc COuTaut

THE LATEST SPINDLE.
Farmers victinaizcd.

Another swindle is being practiced upon farmers. Two rouges watch the papers for estray notices, when one of them goes and looks at the animal. Of course on application the unsuspecting farmer shows the beast. and the fellow desides it is not his, then he returns to his partner and describes It minuteiy to him. No. ? goes to the farmer. ant af- ter proving by thorough descrlptlon that he is the owner of the animal, says he cannot take it away and offers to self it at bargain. The farmer buys, and ia . few days the rightful owner comes around and claims the animal, and of eonrse the farmer Is out just so much.
